While her name is Kaji, it is not "火事" (fire). If you check the credits, "梶井" is how her name is written.

Of course it's not the exact kanji, I would've seriously loled. If her Kaji actually was 火事 this wouldn't really be speculation.

She also plays into the mysticism that surrounds Nanaka's family, who runs the temple. An example would be the way she was looking at the TV when Nanaka performed, which creeped me out almost as much as Higurashi.

Hmm... As a play on words, I understand, but according to ep10, Kaji mentioned that she gave time for the wish to come true. When it didn't come true, she started to use sacrifices like birds. During this episode, she finally snapped and went for humans.

I can't find any real reason for her to commit arson, because she had not started using sacrifices at the time of the fire.

Yeah, I don't think there is a direct link present between them just yet. However, all interaction between Nanaka and Kaji Baa-san has been really strange and tense. That isn't even considering her possible connections to Nanaka's extended family

Spoiler for Nanaka's Family:

I think it was earlier in the thread with a poster that implied Nanaka and Asami are cousins. Could that tie in to the recent happenings?

1. Aoi was the arsonist from years ago; makes another attempt at Nanaka's life
2. Nanaka traumatized once again; turns to Asami for comfort
3. Asami switches over to Nanaka and is accepted
4. Sana is heartbroken and tries to commit suicide
5. Hinako interrupts Sana's attempt... and 'tis the start of a beautiful "friendship"
6. A year later, Shuu and Shuri return... with a child

The person in the fire... So far the only people who were confirmed in the house when the fire happened were Nanaka, her mom, and her dad. Now the person in the fire seemed clam, and didn't run out. So i'm going to go ahead and assume that that was her father. If the uncle did set the fire, he would have escaped. Now why would you stay in a burning house... unless you set the fire in the first place? Maybe the reason the uncle doesn't want them to find out what happened is because he doesn't want to tarnish his brothers name? Or he knew about it before and feels guilty for not being able to stop him? I'll see if my theory pans out over the next 4 eps

We all have similar basic idea but for different reasons.

And if any of these twisted speculations come true will you give it a 10?

Lets hope for not another School Days storyline i hope not but to be honest it has to be a quick punchy storyline as it ends in 2 episodes, Any news on a second series as of yet???
